Debut of Clinical Reasoning by McGraw Hill and expansion of AI Reader into First Aid Forward enhance personalized learning experiences for medical students

COLUMBUS, Ohio: McGraw Hill, Inc. (NYSE: MH) (“McGraw Hill” or the “Company”), a leading global provider of education solutions for preK-12, higher education and professional learning, announced today new and expanded AI capabilities within McGraw Hill’s comprehensive medical education solutions to equip learners with responsible AI-powered tools to personalize their learning experiences.

Clinical Reasoning by McGraw Hill, a digital solution for medical students preparing to become effective clinicians, harnesses GenAI to provide lifelike patient simulations to help learners practice real-world care. Additionally, the company has expanded use of AI Reader into First Aid Forward, bringing the successful GenAI study tool that empowers students to actively engage with and gain a deeper understanding of their course materials to more learners.

Introducing Clinical Reasoning by McGraw Hill

Clinical Reasoning by McGraw Hill is a pioneering AI-powered learning tool built on trusted, evidence-based content to prepare medical students to think like clinicians in real-world care.

Distinctive features include AI-powered Patient Interactive Encounters, which allow learners to safely hone their diagnostic skills before ever seeing real patients. Through lifelike AI-powered simulations, learners practice real-world diagnostic conversations, including gathering the patient’s history, ordering labs or exams and narrowing down possible conditions, before submitting a suggested final diagnosis. Each encounter ends with an evaluation report that compares the learner’s choices to an expert-vetted diagnostic approach and provides meaningful feedback to guide improvement.

Developed and vetted by McGraw Hill’s trusted medical education experts including Dr. Scott Stern, Clinical Reasoning also includes:

• Structured, evidence-based problem modules that teach learners step-by-step how to reason through common patient problems using pivotal questions to support accurate and efficient diagnostic reasoning.
• A comprehensive collection of illness scripts that offer high yield reference material for the problem modules and interactive patient cases – covering typical and atypical presentations, red-flag findings and the patterns essential to sharpening differential diagnosis.

“Reasoning through a patient problem to reach the right diagnosis is one of the most important skills in medicine,” said Dr. Scott Stern, Editor-in-Chief of Clinical Reasoning and author of Symptom to Diagnosis. “Future clinicians need more than just knowledge to build these skills – they also need opportunities for deliberate practice and meaningful feedback. Clinical Reasoning provides a safe way for learners to gain this experience to ultimately make the transition from the classroom to the clinic.”

Clinical Reasoning is designed to complement classroom and clinic-based faculty instruction while helping programs improve consistency, reduce variability in teaching and strengthen diagnostic accuracy.

“By combining trusted medical content with innovative AI-powered practice, Clinical Reasoning helps future clinicians develop the skills, confidence and judgment to make sound diagnostic decisions in real-world care,” said Scott Grillo, President of McGraw Hill Professional. “This unique, new solution is the latest expansion of our growing suite of digital offerings to over 3,000 medical learning institutions and their learners that we serve around the world.”

AI Reader Expands into First Aid Forward

McGraw Hill’s AI Reader is now available within First Aid Forward, integrating new GenAI study support into the digital learning solution that is used by medical students to prepare for board exams like the United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE).

First introduced in McGraw Hill’s Higher Education digital learning solutions, AI Reader is an embedded GenAI learning tool that fosters active reading and empowers students to engage more deeply with their course materials.

Learners can use AI Reader to highlight text within First Aid Forward and instantly generate practice questions based on First Aid’s vetted and reliable content rather than unverified sources – improving comprehension, memorization and the quality of study sessions.

“AI Reader has already enhanced the learning experience of more than 1 million unique learners who have used this innovative GenAI tool across McGraw Hill’s other digital learning solutions,” said David Cortese, Chief Digital Information Officer at McGraw Hill. “With data and insights that demonstrate AI Reader's positive impact on learning outcomes, we're excited to expand the scale and reach of another McGraw Hill AI solution by bringing AI Reader's personalized learning capabilities to medical students through First Aid Forward.”
